Monash University researchers have created an inductive coil system enabling efficient, high-bandwidth communication and power for implanted wireless devices. This novel arrangement eliminates magnetic coupling interference between coils, maintaining consistent power across its entire footprint without "dead spots." It's simple and cost-effective to produce, facilitating better positioning and energy efficiency for devices like modular neural interfaces. This technology is particularly applicable to wirelessly-powered medical implants, enhancing their functionality and reliability.
